Jungle To The Zoo Lyrics - A Little Bit More: The Collection - Dr. Hook

(Shel Silverstein) 

The tiger, he looked out of his cage and smiled 

He said come here boy, I want to talk to you a while 

He said I once was running wild and free just the same as you 

But it's one step from the jungle to the zoo 

Its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

You better watch out or they're gonna get you too 

They'll clip your claws, cut your hair, make a pussy cat out of you 

Its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

He said son when you go running through the grass 

You bet look out for all the hidden traps 

They'll feed you sweets and goodies 'til you're too fat to move 

Then its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

Its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

You better watch out or they're gonna get you too 

They'll clip your claws, yank your fangs, make a pussy cat out of you 

Its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

Only one step from the jungle to the zoo 

You better watch out or they're gonna get you too 

They'll clip your claws, cut your hair, make a pussy cat out of you 

Its one step from the jungle to the zoo 

Only one step from the jungle to the zoo 

You better watch out or they're gonna get you too.....
